Shifting weather patterns, unexpected storms, and the ever present possibility of terror attacks are constant threats across the country. Experts recommend that you have an emergency survival kit on hand, preferably one that can be easily picked up and taken with you. Every home should have 72 hour emergency kits for every person in the household. Having these kits can help you quickly evacuate in case of terrorist attack, or can provide you with the necessary essential in case of a tornado, earthquake, flash flood or other weather emergency.
Convenience
72 hour survival kits need to be portable. Being able to carry them in the car with you, or quickly grab them when you need to evacuate, is part of what makes them so important. Our kits come packaged in a convenient backpack that’s easy to store, easy to carry, and ready to go when you need it.
The Necessities
You can survive several days on water alone, but water won’t keep you warm, dry and informed about what’s going on in the world. Emergency kits should also include the following:
- Flashlight
- light sticks
- am/fm radio with speakers and batteries
- blankets
- tents
- food bars
- purification tablets for making drinking water
- multi-tool knife
- survival whistle
- rope
- work gloves
- first aid kit
Lightweight
Imagine that you live in a cold climate and your car breaks down in a snow storm. Or imagine that you are caught in a flash flood and your car is swept off the road. You can only stay with the car for so long. At some point, you may have to go for help. If that happens, you don’t want to lug around a heavy survival pack. That’s why ours are designed using lightweight material. 72 hour kits weigh less than ten pounds so you can carry them wherever you need to.
Don’t Travel Without Them
A snowstorm in 2009 left travelers in West Virginia stranded on the highway for more than 18 hours. Trapped behind jack-knifed semis with nowhere to exit, thousands of holiday vacationers found their plans delayed. Cars had to be turned off periodically to preserve gas, and there was no place to buy food or water. 72 hour emergency kits require very little space in the car. They can easily be stashed behind seats or under seats. You never know when an accident might leave you trapped on the highway for hours on end, be prepared for this by taking 72 hour Survival Kits with you when you travel. Even when traveling to work and back, it’s a good idea to have a kit in the car just in case.
Home, Office, and Home Away From Home
Emergency Survival Kits are surprisingly affordable and the food is guaranteed to last for five years. Having several kits on hand is more convenient, and you know you will never be without it. Leave one at the office in case of emergency evacuations or power outages. Keep at least one in every car, so no matter what you’re driving you will be protected. It’s also a great idea to leave on in your RV, boat, or vacation home in addition to having a few on hand at your own house.
Education
When you get your emergency kit, open it up and read through the manual. While you don’t want to open everything unless you need it, it’s still a good idea to familiarize yourself with what is in it, how to use it, and where to locate it. Teach your children about the kit and how to use it. Education is the key to survival, and teaching your family about the 72 hour kits could save their lives someday.
